stores it in the archive. The index lists each symbol defined by a
member of an archive that is a relocatable object file.
-You may use @code{nm -s} or @code{nm +print-armap} to list this index.
+You may use @samp{nm -s} or @samp{nm +print-armap} to list this index.
An archive with such an index speeds up linking to the library, and
allows routines in the library to call each other without regard to

Using one of these options, you can choose whether the output from GNU
@code{size} resembles output from System V @code{size} (using @samp{-A},
-or @samp{+format sysv}, or Berkeley @code{size} (using @samp{-B}, or

Berkeley's.
